A strongly monotonic polygonal Euler scheme
In recent years tamed schemes have become an important technique for simulating SDEs and SPDEs whose continuous coefficients display superlinear growth. The taming method, which involves curbing the growth of the coefficients as a function of stepsize, has so far however not been adapted to preserve the monotonicity of the coefficients. This has arisen

Multistable Composite Laminate Grids as a Design Tool for Soft Reconfigurable Multirotors
Flexible, lightweight, stable: the reconfigurable multirotor combines stable flight in multiple shapes with low‐energy reconfiguration. Utilizing optimized multistable composites, it achieves self‐locking in open and folded configurations, cutting width‐span by 48% and allowing for safe gap traversal.

A Monte Carlo simulation framework is introduced to predict the folding behavior of sequence‐encoded magnetic microrobots, enabling systematic exploration of their design space. By mapping key metrics such as radius of gyration and symmetry, the framework identifies functional sequences and predicts actuation behaviors.

On the monotonicity of generalized barycentric coordinates on convex polygons [PDF]
We show that four well-known kinds of generalized barycentric coordinates in convex polygons share a simple monotonicity property: the coordinate function associated with a vertex is increasing along any line from the polygon boundary to that vertex.

The geography of connectivity shapes plant endemism hotspots
The high biodiversity in mountains is attributed to species accumulation from dispersal, high habitat heterogeneity and local speciation. Landscape connectivity thereby influences colonization and speciation processes, making its net effect on biodiversity challenging to understand.

Perspective Projection of an Ellipse and an Ellipsoid for Analytical View Factor Evaluation
ABSTRACT Radiative view factors are fundamental quantities for evaluating radiative heat transfer between different surfaces. While analytical expressions of view factors have been evaluated for various types of basic geometries, including circular disks and spheres, extending these solutions to more complex geometries, such as ellipses and ellipsoids ...

Hydroclimate variability in the eastern Kimberley, Australia, since the last deglaciation
Abstract The climate of the Kimberley region in tropical northwest Australia is dominated by the Indo‐Australian summer monsoon (IASM). Understanding of the palaeoclimate since the Last Glacial Maximum in this region, which is well placed to record IASM variations, is currently based on few records.

Evaluating sulfurization as a blue carbon sink in a southern California salt marsh
Abstract Blue carbon ecosystems such as seagrass meadows, mangrove forests, and salt marshes are important carbon sinks that can store carbon for millennia. Recently, organic matter sulfurization and pyritization have been proposed as mechanisms of net carbon storage in blue carbon ecosystems. At our study site, organic sulfur that is resistant to acid
